Benefits of Using Hypnotherapy in Addiction Treatment

Hypnotherapy is an evidence-based treatment for addiction, which can also be used to treat a variety

of other psychological difficulties. Hypnotherapy combines the psychological process of hypnosis with psychotherapy. Hypnotherapy is

conducted by a trained therapist, typically a licensed psychologist, with a client who is informed

about and understands and consents to the process.


During a hypnotherapy session, a hypnotherapist will first speak with the person about their disorder. They will learn about the challenges the person faces and what changes they would like to make in their life. The therapist will then help the person to achieve a hypnotic state. While in this hypnotic state, the therapist will give the person suggestions about changing their life that they want them to implement later on after the hypnosis session is over.
